Hey guys! So we are reaching the end of the semester and that means summer break is just around the corner! With the last week of classes and finals in play, we are all feeling the stress and pressure of being a college student.
So, for my last post before summer break, I just wanted to share with you all some of my favorite quotes I have found over the years. These always help me to make my day better and I hope they are able to do the same for you! I just wanted to thank all of you for taking the time to read my posts over the semester and I hope they were able to put a smile on your face! Finish the semester strong and I hope you come back to my blog in the future to help brighten up your day! Thanks for reading everybody and happy almost summer!
I wanted to give a shout out to a fellow blogger whose blog is called Girls, God & the Good Life. It presents frequent posts about living life as a Christian girl and is filled with insightful information and a blog that I find myself visit quite often. I encourage you to check it out, it can be found to the right under my blog roll!
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race,
Hey everybody! Here is something to bring a great big smile to your beautiful face, Easter is this weekend! This is one of the best times of the year because it is a reminder of what Jesus did on the cross for us. Be thankful for His sacrifice and don't forget to tell Him!
This week I am going to share with you one of my biggest role models. She is a girl who I have never met before, but her story is incredible and how she was able to keep her faith throughout her journey is a true inspiration to all those who know about her. This girl is Bethany Hamilton.
In case you don't know who this is, Bethany is a professional surfer from Hawaii who lost her arm in a shark attack when she was only thirteen years old. Her goal in life was to become a professional surfer with two arms, but God had a different plan for her life. When Bethany lost her arm, she had to learn how to surf with only one arm. I'm sure this was a difficult task for her to undergo, but knowing God was by her side must have been a comfort.
As a professional surfer, Bethany has reached out to so many people and she is able to share her testimony with people from all around the world. She shares about never giving up and not thinking less of yourself because you may be different from other people.
Bethany is truly an inspiration to reach for your dreams and not be afraid of failure. You never know how many people you could touch with your story.
Hey everybody! It's getting close to the end of the semester and things are beginning to get really crazy in all of my classes, and I'm sure you are feeling a lot of the same stress that I am! I hope you are able to keep your head up and stay positive as we are reaching the end of the school year!
I have been thinking a lot about God recently and the amount of love He has for each and every one of us. He loves us more than anything else in the world. The vastness of His love is more than we will ever be able to fathom and it's difficult to think about because as humans we aren't able to love as much as Him, let alone understand the extent of His love for us.
Anytime that you are feeling unloved because of something going on with your boyfriend or your parents aren't treating you the way you would like, or even your friends are all mad at you for something, just remember that God loves you SO much. He loves you enough to send His Son to die on the cross for YOU.
If this fact does not bring a great big smile to your face, than I don't know what will. God's love for you is more than we will ever be able to understand and that is part of what makes Him beautiful. When you are struggling through something or feel like no one loves you, take a look in the Bible and see that God's love is greater than anything else.
Have a great rest of your week and remember that GOD LOVES YOU!
"But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners,
Hey everybody! I hope you all have had a great week and keep your head held high because summer is just around the corner! Let that be your motivation to finish out
this semester strong.
Growing up we all develop dreams that we hope we can achieve for ourselves one day in our future. They start out being really big dreams like becoming the President of the United States of America, and as we get older, we realize some of our dreams can never come true. We begin to set smaller dreams for ourselves because they seem to be more possible.
Don't let someone else diminish your dreams. Reach for the stars and try your hardest to live your dreams. No matter how big or small the dream may seem, if it is something you want to do, then go and do it and do not worry about what other people have to say! You are capable of so much with your life and you can make even your wildest dreams come true!
One of my all time favorite movies is Tangled. Thinking about dreams reminds me of the scene where Rapunzel and Flynn Rider got to the Snuggly Duckling and sing the song entitled "I've Got a Dream". This is my favorite song from this movie and I hope it makes you as happy as it makes me.
Hope this song makes you remember that your dreams are worth fighting for! Have a
great week!
